Exclamation SAE Towing Standards

Previously I mentioned that there is a movement afoot to generate and publish a Towing Standard from SAE so the ratings from one OEM to another are apples to apples, etc.

PickupTruck.Com - SAE, OEMs, Trailer, and Hitch Companies Work to Define Standards for Tow Testing

This is really needed. This way we might avoid as many overloaded and unsafe trailers on the road.

I would think this would be a deal. It would still come down too the owner using some common sense.

Unfortunately, common sense is a rarity.
